My Project

I pride myself in making my classroom a safe learning space. You never know what a student is going through at home, and school can be an escape for them. I want my classroom to have a welcoming vibe, where students can feel calm and loved.

Flexible seating will be beneficial to my fidgety friends.

I know it is not comfortable sitting in a hard chair for hours. I want students to have somewhere they can sit and fidget if needed. I know students that need to fidget can focus better, if they are allowed to do so (without distracting others).

I want the best for my students. For almost eight hours a day, they are my babies. I want them to walk in my classroom and feel the warmth and love I have to offer. This project allows me to have a comfy classroom vibe that I so long for!
